Good follow up dr_bar.

When you look at the stills, you will also notice that the wing stub is too clean. No ripped areas from the cables that control the aileron. That one had to be a radio controlled model. They use a servo mounted in the wing, and plugged into a wiring harness in the fuselage.

Also didn't pay attention to the different sound of the motor as the wing was falling away.

Real of fake it is still an awsome video, and the person controlling that thing did an awsome job of getting it down on the ground in the least amount of pieces. Either way, it seems like it should have bounced more, and if it was a real pilot and plane, that landing would have shattered his spine.

LOL.

If it is a fake, I think it is brilliantly made.

If I could ride a bike like this guy can splice a vid...
